Mothers Day

Today I want to give thanks for my mother. She is in her 80's and looks and acts 60's. She always put us kids first and never left us at babysitters. If we couldn't go with her and Dad they didn't go. No one I know is a harder worker than my Mom. She Rocks!
I am blessed to be a mother to three fantastic children. God truly blessed me with my children. They amaze me continuously and are so talented. this is not talent from me. This is God given talent. They are kind and compassionate, intelligent and steady, loving and unselfish. Lisa, Karen and Brian make me proud to be their Mom. I am the one who feels indebted to them. They have taught me so many things. Today I was blessed to sit between Lisa and Brian at church and I wore Karen's "Jesus fish" ring to have her close. when I find myself missing Karen I think about how much she has given up to be a mom to children who truly feel like my blood grandchildren. I am so blessed. This year I have a new son, Dorian. I could not have picked a better son. God continues to bless me! And a daughter in my heart is Amanda Sue. I have watched her grow into a wonderful mother to her own and those she cares for. Her children also feel like my grandchildren. So while I do not presently have any biological grandchildren I have lots of grand children from my heart. So today is good, because I have Lisa, Karen, Dorian and Brian and then I have Amanda Sue, Adam, Taylor, Brennen and Payton. And I have Rudy, Brayan, Yovanni, Marvin, Pamela, Daniella, Mario, Fitto, Cindy Lou, Fernando, Monica, Francisco, Marjouri, Katy, and Antonio. Nothing makes my heart sing more than to hear Antonio voice on the phone saying "Hola Grandma Anita". I am so blessed. this mother's day is a celebration of riches.
